Hey everyone, Carnage here, and it looks like I’m going to be writing a reaaallly long post today, so prepare yourselves! I have mixed news, well, not really good news, but it’s not necessarily bad either, at least for me.

TL;DR I need your help

First off, the important news is, if you haven’t heard, I am bridging away from FNaF, and am leaving the FNaF fangame community. I’ve been distancing myself from it, and I no longer want to work on any FNaF fangames, and want to leave the FNaF fangame community and work on original games of my own as a whole. I’ve moved on, and I go into more detail why in the latest announcement which you can find on my other game, Battlegrounds. Simply put it, the appeal of FNaF has worn off for me, and I’m moving on from the fangame community, and by mid 2017, I will no longer be part of it officially. The reason why I’m announcing this is because this also means I no longer will be releasing updates for this game. I know I promised content updates, and I am sorry, but I’ve lost all motivation to work on anything FNaF-related. I want to move on to do my own original IPs, and therefore, there will no longer be any updates for this game. It is finished, and while I promised content updates, which I do apologise for, I’m not delaying nor forcing myself to stick around the fangame community anymore. I’ve been developing FNaF fangames and been apart of it for 3 years, and I think it’s long enough and that it’s time I take my leave. The community itself has changed, and I no longer want any part of it. So yes, I am dropping support for this game. It was fun while it lasted, being apart of the community aswell, but my leave is long overdue. This will be the last announcement related to this game on this game’s page, do not expect anymore updates or fixes, as the game is finished, and I am/I’ve moved on from FNaF fangames.

Secondly, I have been having some serious issues that have been hindering me from game development. I don’t want to go into too much detail about it here, but as a result of it, I have thought about it for quite a while, and have decided to start a Patreon, which you can find here. I have gone into more detail on the actual page, and everything said there is as real as it gets for me. I’m suffering from issues that are changing my priorities, and slowing down my game development. I’ve always wanted to be a game developer, and game development is no longer just my hobby, it’s what I want as my future profession, not something I playfully indulge it anymore. However, this dream may no longer be plausible due to reasons I have stated in the Patreon, and I don’t know what will happen. What I love doing, and have loved doing since I was a kid, is being seriously threatened, and I can barely afford paying for game development assets/tools now. So please, if you can, donating even a single cent helps. If you can’t donate, it’s alright. I’d appreciate a lot if you did, and would be eternally grateful, honestly. This isn’t some “cash grab”, this is what’s going on in my life, and I’m helpless about it. Donating to the Patreon would mean supporting me and my games, and helping what I love doing: game development. Thank you to all the fans of my games, seriously, whether you are donating or not, you guys have made a difference in my life, and I appreciate it.

Last but not least, I’ve created a Discord server for all things relating to my games and just as a general hangout where you can talk with me and stuff. Feel free to join it here.

That’s all I have to say for this long news article. Once again, thank you all so much for supporting me and my games, and I’m sorry to bring this sad news, especially about me and FNaF. I will still be developing and releasing games on GameJolt, just not FNaF fangames. I am not leaving as a developer, I am simply leaving all my FNaF fangames behind and moving forward.

Thanks a ton for reading!
